Miley BB CD 1942 World Series Game 3
Called by Red Barber and Mel Allen

Ernie White scatters 6 singles (two each by Phil Rizzuto and Joe DiMaggio) in pitching a complete game shutout.  The Cardinals only manage 5 singles themselves, but a fielders choice and error give them the two runs they need to win.
